BILLY HILL Chapter 15

After finishing his chores
Billy went to pick up Linda and take her out to dinner and then to the movie
house.

They didn't watch the movie
very much due to the hugging and kissing.

After one kiss Linda said;
"that thing has to go," referring to his mustache. The next day the mustache was
little more than a memory which pleased Linda to no end.

Then he showed her the
surprise he had been saving for the right moment; which was the new home site
for their new house. She looked over the
plans and immediately started to make changes in the floor plan.

This pleased Billy for she
had some good suggestions but more than that she was now involved in their
future home.

The summer went quickly with
Linda helping in the dry goods store and Billy working on the farms. Before long it was time for Linda to return
for the last year of college and then school would be over.

They were both looking
forward to that because the separation was difficult for them.

When school was over, they would be ready for the wedding
and there was the house to be built, so many things ahead.

Unsuspectingly Linda wrote
her parents that she wouldn't be able to come home for Christmas because of
scheduling her classes and she would spend Christmas day with friends near the
school.

To say Billy was disappointed
was putting it mildly and her parents were also very upset.

Linda had not been writing
Billy as often as before and when she did write it wasn't very personal. Billy assumed it was because of the heavy schedule
she had. He wrote her and told her of
his disappointment.

Linda's mother took it a
little farther and contacted some of Linda's friends at school and inquired as
to what was really happening. They pretty well laid out what was happening and
it didn't set well with her mother either.

Apparently some fancy Dan had
kept flirting with Linda until she began to enjoy the attention he paid her,
and they were spending time together. She knew Linda was meant for Billy, and she
didn't want her to make the mistake of becoming infatuated with some guy who
flitted from flower to flower.

She tried to figure how to
tell Billy about her concerns and finally she just came out and told him what
was going on, and that he should do something about it before it went too far.
The boy had a bad reputation and was a very smooth talker.

Billy understood the whole
matter and told her he would take care of it. He went home and called his two
brothers, and said we are going to take a little vacation. Pack your bags and
we can catch the late train.

They knew something was up,
so they were already at the station before Billy got there.

It was still early when they
arrived at their destination so they ate a good breakfast. During the trip he
explained part of the reason for the trip and he just wanted them to back him
up if necessary.

Both of his brothers said
they were hoping it would be necessary for they would like a little of the action.

Billy went to the school and
found the girls that Linda's mother had contacted and they explained what was
going on.They also told him where the
cad lived and how to get there.

Billy requested that the
girls not mention to Linda that he had been there for he didn't ever want her
to know about it.

The girls were eager to agreed not to say
anything to her, and they would leave things to him to solve.

Armed with this information Billy
knew where the offender lived and caught him still in bed for he had been out
late last night.

Without saying anything Billy
jumped straddle of him and hit him in both eyes which immediately started turning
black.

In a threatening voice
Billy said; "you have violated your right to live;" and hit him hard again in the
mouth. The trembling guy through bleeding lips said what have I done?

Billy hit him twice more in
the ribs and said; "you have been messing with my girl and you have forfeited
your right to live." Well for the next half hour lover boy did some of the most
pitiful begging to live that was ever heard.

Billy had hit him just about
everywhere and said; shall I come back tomorrow and do this again? At this
point the guy was hardly able to respond so Billy shouted in a loud voice; "if
you ever in any way have any contact with Linda, I will be back and finish you
off, do you understand?"

The guy assured Billy that he
was leaving town this very day and would never be back.
